Explore Kauai with Kipu Ranch Adventures

Kipu Ranch Adventures offers a new way to experience Kauai. From base camp, jump in an ATV and hang on as you explore off-road waterfalls, lookouts, and movie locations. The knowledgeable tour guides will share local knowledge and stories about Kauai’s past.

Insider tip: Bring a Fresh Bites snack from the resort, or book a tour that includes a lunch. All that exploring works up an appetite!

Horseback RidingReally, you must do it at least once. There are breathtaking trails along the coast and in the valleys. Hanalei Valley, Haupu Valley and Waimea Canyon will make you forget that you’re sore.

See the Na Pali CoastA photographer’s dream, it features majestic cliffs, sea caves and other natural wonders. Best seen by hiking or boating.

Kaua`i by HelicopterTour Jurassic Falls, the Na Pali Coast, Mt. Wai‘ale‘ale Crater, Wailua Falls and other stunning locations which are only accessible by helicopter. Experienced pilots offer a new understanding of the island’s history and ecosystems.

Kaua`i by CatamaranTouring the majestic Na Pali coastline by boat is a must-do experience because of its vertical cliffs, which create the “Cathedral of the Pacific.” View sea caves, waterfalls dropping straight into the ocean, and playful spinner dolphins and humpback whales during whale season (Dec - March). None of these wonders are viewable from land.
